These notes have been developed whereas as I was a Visiting Professor at the International Development Program (IDV) at University of Southern Mississippi, College of International & Continuing Education, International Development Doctoral Program USM in the fall semester of 2000. These notes are not a substitute for any graduate textbook of Econometrics nor are complementary. Instead, these notes reflect the methods that most second year students need for their thesis. As the program evolves other research techniques will be used and some additional notes will be required. The notes are a brief overview of some of the standard techniques in econometrics. In that sense, these notes are incomplete.
